Ben had poor vision and needed glasses to read. He got tired of constantly taking them off and putting them back on, so he decided to figure out a way to make his glasses let him see both near and far. He had two pairs of spectacles c ...

Dr. Jack G. Copeland implanted this Jarvik-7 heart in Michael Drummond on August 29, 1985. Drummond lived with the Jarvik-7 for a week before an organ transplant. It was the first authorized use of an artificial heart as a bridge to organ transplantation.
Dr. Robert K. Jarvik had developed the heart during the late 1970s, working with many other researchers. It consists of two ventricles (the heart's lower chambers) with air chambers and six titanium valves. It attaches to the patient's natural auricles (the heart's upper chambers).
Courtesy of the National Museum of American History, gift of the University Medical Center of the University of Arizona, 1987.

Isaac Merritt Singer was the most flamboyant of 19th-century sewing machine inventors, having sharpened his skills as an actor before becoming an inventor. Around 1850, he began concentrating on improving an existing sewing machine.
Success followed quickly. This 1853 model is a commercial sewing machine. The patent claims were for the methods of feeding the cloth, regulating the tension on the needle thread, and lubricating the needle thread so that leather could be sewn.

While Alexander Graham Bell was experimenting with telegraph instruments in the early 1870s, he realized it might be possible to transmit the human voice over a wire by using electricity. By March 1876 he made a transmission, but the sound was very faint.
He improved his results over the next few months, including a critical test with this instrument on November 26, when he transmitted sound clearly between Cambridge and Salem, Massachusetts. It functioned as both a transmitter and a receiver.

Can Opener, 1858
British merchant Peter Durand made a huge stride in food preservation with his 1810 invention of the can. Canned rations provided to soldiers and explorers saved legions from sure starvation. So grateful for its inner contents were the hungry recipients that no one really complained about the sweat and toil often required to simply open the can.

Leonardo's fascination with machines probably began during his boyhood. Some of his earliest sketches clearly show how various machine parts worked. As an apprentice in the studio of the artist Verrocchio, Leonardo observed and used a variety of machines. By studying them he gained practical knowledge about their design and structure.
